View the Meeting Materials Password

Some SROs* set passwords to the meeting materials provided to reviewers. Reviewers can retrieve the password on the View Meeting Materials Password screen in IAR. Using these features creates a secure communication device for letting reviewers know the password.

To view the password select the View Password for Materials link from the Action column on the List of Meetings.

The View Password for Meeting Materials pop up window opens displaying the password.

NOTE: If a password does not display, this means the SRO has not set one for the meeting.

Tip: *Other Transaction Authority (OTA) - Some screens and terminology may be different in order to accommodate review of OTA, a type of award that is neither a grant nor a contract but a different way of funding that is being used across NIH. These changes will typically not be visible to NIH or agency reviewers.
